Channel Signal Processing
Parameters The channel signal processing parameters determine the signal processing that
will be performed on the input signals. Use these parameters to select the
output data units, full scale settings, and the low cutoff frequency.
There are six instances of the signal processing parameters, one for each
channel.
Channel Signal Processing Parameters
Parameter Name Description Values/Comments
Output Data Unit The data units of the measured values. The available options depend on the
Eng. Units selection. See page
60.
Full Scale The maximum vibration level expected to be
processed by the channel. This value is used to
determine the analog hardware range
(programmable gain settings).
Setting the full scale to a greater value allows the
channel to handle greater measurement levels
without saturating or clipping. Setting the full scale
value to a lesser value allows the measurement to
have greater resolution.
The full scale should be set to a value greater than
the maximum expected vibration level and/or the
value of the Danger alarm. Typical setting: 1.5 to 2
times greater.
Same measurement unit as Output
Data Unit selection for the specified
channel.
